Yeah, that certainly is reasonable, but I didn't like the bill Trump killed, and considering that economists figured out that it was only due to immigration, including illegal immigration, that the U.S. economy bounced back from the Covid doldrums, shutting ourselves off from asylum-seekers is definitely not a wise policy.
However, there should be an ongoing effort to ensure countries where asylum-seekers are coming from can get better economies. The U.S. doesnтАЩt always have to be the only place where employment opportunities should be.
Of course, there would have to be trade-offs with certain countries depending on what their economies are like. This would be more of an ongoing foreign policy affair.
Last time I checked only about 10% of those whoтАЩve left Venezuela ended up in the U.S. a far smaller percentage of refugees from Iraq and Syria and Afghanistan are here. ItтАЩs not close to being the case that the US is the only country taking refugees/asylees, despite being a leading cause of why folks are leaving their homes.
Also Cuba although I donтАЩt see migrants to represent a substantial portion of those coming in the US.
That said, if thereтАЩs an opportunity to build strong relations with a country where migrants are coming from itтАЩs Cuba. President Miguel Diaz-Canel has expressed openness for continuing relations with the US although during the Trump and Biden Administration they have taken a back burner.
"While we understand that many people are desperate to migrate to the United States, our system must be orderly and secure. And that is my goal."
Sounds reasonable. And reasonable is what her entire campaign is built on.

With Venezuela, itтАЩs more complicated.
